I like Grimms but who's to say that he will be successful as a head coach. There have been alot of assitant coaches which have fallen flat on their face when becoming a head coach (Williams & Saunders to mention two). Its one thing to coach a group of guys and another to run a team. Some people are very good and others while they may have the talent just don't know how to translate that into a head coaching job. I would think Grimm would be successful but no one really knows until he is given a chance. Are we ready to clear the slate and start from ground zero which is what we would be doing. Head coaches tend to want their hand picked coaches around them and I would think he would make changes to meet his needs not the needs that Gibbs had.
